Summary:This paper presents a balanced active and reactive power control, using a Phase Locked Loop for synchronization, and applied to a grid connected Five Level Inverter. The energy source of the system can be a photovoltaic generator or a wind turbine. We size the passive elements of the system and explain the value of the system architecture using a Five Level Inverter when compared to a classical grid connected system. We also compare the balanced active and reactive power control to an unbalanced active and reactive power control. The simulation results obtained by using Matlab Simulink and Simpowersystems are presented and discussed in this paper.
